eloriement of .Miss Elso iiorner and
Lorimer E. Graham, both of Washing
ton. D. C., and their wedding in Br.lti-
niore is still causing dissension in the
Portner family, due to the opposition
to the match ol the bride's mother,
.Airs. Robert W. Portner, of this city.
Several conferences were held with
the mother today by various members
of the family hut the outcome is not
known. A iiimor says the mother hjis
threatened to disir.herit her daughter;
! another rumor says Miss Elsa was en-
to justify their existence. They have
ridden into office on the sorry jade of
religious pers'ecurion, and the poor
beast must be pricked into something
like a gallop, or the passengers will
complain of tho ])ace. All the church
schools will i.e closed and Catholic
parents submit to having their o ff-

Xo .\ustrian minister ever worked
harder than Count Von Aehrenthal
has done ever since he was called
from a life of luxurious ease at St.
Petersburg to labor of the most arduo
us kind at Had))jalz. where he was
helped to make Euroi^ean history from
the very day f>r bis arrival, always
lighting bitter and deadly enemies on
all sides.
•At homo in the Delegations and
with the opposition and coalition in
Hungary, and abioad with the oppon
ents of the Bosnian annexation,
where he even had to risk the peace
of Europe. At last victory came to
Cour* Von Aehrenthal all along the
line, and he left his work in the con
sciousness of having achieved a dis
tinct success. If he consulted his ow^n
wi.shes He would probably retire entire
ly from the heavy burden of office
which has rested on his shoudlers. But
the country and his soverigns will
not allow this step, for they feel that
they cannot spare the man who has
stood in the centre of European poli
tics for over two years and raised the
position of Austria-Hungary enormous
ly.
Count "Von Aehrenthal looks upon M.
Delcasse as a man most dangerous to
European peace, and Austria sincere
ly desires peace, having every reason
imaginable to he satisfied with the
present political situation.

fleers do not know the country, and
are not in possession even a man. The
wells are dislant f^'om one anotlier.
The oases are the only hope of the
troops, but in the long run they w'ill
be insufficient for the w’anls of a
greater force.
’’Over and over again the Beduins
will attack the I’urkish troops: rob
them of their provisions, and disap
pear. They will poison the wells b.v
throwing a camel cargo of dead grass
hoppers into them. I know myself the
teiTible poisoning which follows (pien-
ching one's thrist with the water. And
yet it would be an easy matter to
pacif.\ the Arabs if the systetm itself
was not as bad as had can be. If only
I nrkey would keep her promise and
conclude an alliance with the tribes.
I know' how easily it can ’oe done. Al
liance and peace with the Heduin is

Russia's next political move will be
